If you like the feeling of down comforters, but rather not pay down comforter prices or maybe you are allergic, then you'll absolutely love our Down Alternative options. This Dorm Co comforter is 210 TC 100% Cotton Down Alt. Comforter and is certainly not considered a high end down alternative, but it gets you what you need at a cheap dorm price. This comforter is best used in warmer climates because it lacks the thickness and warmth needed for cold weather college towns.
Down & Down Alternative Information:
What's also important to know is that most down comforters or down alternative comforters are best paired with a duvet cover. The reason a duvet cover is important is that it can be taken off and more easily washed by itself instead of washing the full comforter. That is not only an important fact, but it makes down comforters an appealing choice for laundry resistant college students. This is also important to know because if you do add a duvet cover the outer shell of your down or down alternative does not matter because it will be covered. For instance a 210 thread count cover is not the softest, but if you are covering this comforter with a duvet then the thread count of this down alternative does not matter. Conversely, if you won't have a duvet cover then the thread count matters because that is what you'll be touching on a daily basis.
